    this “takeover” is imho a good thing. the greeter/login manager is an essential part of a desktop experience and I was sad that sddm was so left behind until now

    Thank you, devs. SDDM 0.20.0 is super awesome ❤️❤️❤️

    Polishing up SDDM is probably the sensible choice. Going forward, I think greetd has the best chances to be “the” WM-agnostic display manager.

      The AUR is the Arch User Repository

      Generally people don’t use DE’s from the AUR except for some weird exceptions (i’m using swayfx), and because it’s made by arch users, there’s almost never an ETA that can be given.

      As for when it enters the real repos, it’s not even released yet, so, after it releases and they’ve tested it.

        They’re asking for betatesters in the blog post. Having that beta version available in the AUR would explode the amount of beta testers.

        AUR contains tons of Linux Mobile stuff which I hated a lot in the beginning, but then I thought that if it helps devs to distribute those mobile apps then I’m fine with it.
